I have never even been to a festival, or even a gathering before. So this is comparatively like the first drug you ever try being DMT, and I'm not sure if it is excitement, or sheer terror 
Any you guys been out there in recent years that can shed some insight on what it's all about?

From what I understand, it's just a make shift city in the middle of the desert. Art, music, food, drinks, and so on. You just go to be a part of the hetty vibes brah.
Honestly, I have no idea though. I like to think there are wild sex orgies there.

Never been there but I have some friends that go and they love it. Just make sure you read the survival guide. http://www.burningman.com/preparation/event_survival/ It's for last year but...

Ive actually read the survival guide a few times over the years, and sure I'll read it some more. I have to say the only thing that really has me worried is that absolutely noone I know is going. Theres a few first year guys in the thread in the gathering forum that have tickets, that Im gonna try to maybe hook up with and roll in with together, but if that somehow fell through I'd be flying completely solo.
Thanks for the torrent idea, Im gonna check into that right now

I made a thread on the boards earlier if anyone wanted to make a Shroomery camp, but I suppose that might have been overly ambitious for my first bout with the festival. I will definitely check out that thread, thanks for that heads up

I've never considered going to Burning Man, just because my budget doesn't have room for a ticket with that kind of price, but I've been to a number of "Burner parties" and they're pretty fun. The major recurring themes I've noticed are giant flame-throwing industrial art pieces, hot dog stands, and drunk-but-not-too-drunk anarchist hippies.
Have fun and take pictures!

Yeah, I'm really hoping I don't run into any bull-shit catastrophe's that I can't hurdle before the date! I'm a bit almost overwhelmed by the thought that I now have a ticket, probably a lot of it could be credited to being deathly hungover all day.
I've wanted to go for years though, but always found some reason not to (bitchy girlfriends, just starting a job, etc) - but this year I am just gonna go for that shit.
Half drunk anarchist hippies doesn't sound too bad, hopefully no 5-0's ruin our good time

If you do go out there solo you will have to join someone's village. It will be damn near impossible to survive out there on your own.
Burning man seems like tons of fun, but it is also a huge fucking hassle. Freezing at night, insanely hot during the day, and sand storms. Lots of shit you gotta be prepared for.

I had to be in all my classes first week this semester just to stay in the class, though I did have one teacher who actually did spend several days talking about her insanely long-winded egocentric syllabus.

My school only took attendance for the first 2-3 weeks of the semester, to make sure they weren't cutting a student loan check to someone who wasn't actually going to school.

Wow dude....
...First off, I'm incredibly envious
I could only imagine how ya feel, never been to a festival/gathering and going to BM alone . That's fucking awesome though man, no doubt you're going to have an amazing experience...
I've been to a few (smaller) festivals/gatherings and have had some profound experience and always a damn good time, as well as meeting all sorts of different people. But from what I've seen, and what I've heard from people that have been going to BM for years...It seems like a way over the top time, in many aspects.
I know I'm not going to make it this year, but next time around it's gonna happen....
Have a good one sir, lose your self, shouldn't be all that hard.
BTW, I'm sure you've watched quite a bit of videos from BM, but this one from last year is one of the better ones I've seen>>

I'm actually kind of surprised at the lack of response to people heading out there this year from this community, I would think people would be trampling over each other to go lose their minds in the desert for a week.
Although I do understand its pricey, you have 358 other days of the year to save

I'd rather spend $50 to go to a smaller music festival and lose my mind for a weekend in the mountains. Many times over.
Than spend $400 to go out to some city where I'll have to spend more money and yada yada yada.
It does sound like something I will eventually have to do though.

nah dude, i think they keep getting shorter. ive done too many drugs and i think i fucked up my perception of time forever.
i made a post earlier in ODD and i mentioned that the last time i saw a white "g's up hoes down" was 3 and a half years ago. after i reread that post when i made it to check for typo's and unclear sentences, i seriously had to ask myself if it had really been that long. it feels like it was last summer, if even.

I'm fairly certain that Burning Man opened a massive portal back in the 1990s.. and extra-dimensional entities have been flooding their way in ever since. 
But yeah, I'm going... my wonderful friends gifted me a ticket for my birthday! 
This will be my first time, which I consider perfect because the theme for this year is "Rites of Passage".
Apparently a TON of people I know are going for the first time this year as well. 
The stars are aligned for complete and utter awesomeness.

I feel ya, and agree that smaller is sometimes better. Once you go to Burning Man, you'll see.. it's not for everyone, but most people love it! Oh, and btw.. once you're in the gate, there is no money exchange except for things like ice, or coffee that benefits the local community. You bring enough for yourself, and to help others enjoy their experience, and that is all! No one selling ANYTHING inside of there. Not drugs, food, booze, or anything else that you normally run into at festivals.
Im confident I can find some e-tards who'd like to exchange for some of my gifts

That is great news! Do you have a camp group yet? I have heavily kicked around the idea of getting a ticket to give away on here, but its so damn much money that would come directly out of burning man / moving funds I would so love to though!

Going out and finding shit to do by yourself would be no problem I'm sure, but having that home base of familiar faces is very important, especially in mentally challenging moments of the experience. People who remember your face, your name, and have possibly been eagerly awaiting your arrival back to camp 
I would need a camp to fully enjoy myself out there, and if I didn't think I'd not fully enjoy myself out there, I wouldn't invest the $1,000+ of going.

Definitely. Having some familiar faces in this kind of environment would be nice.
But then again, you will meet new people and that could be the perfect thing.
I plan on knowing as many people going as possible though, before-hand.

I agree. but you don't need a village or a theme camp or anything. a few like minded individuals can get everything they need together.
tight knit is better!

I will be going with noone I know, and will be making the 1800 mile trek completely by myself. My only close friends I will have there is the ones I shake hands with while setting up my tent in the First Timers theme camp. Its going to be a WHOLE NEW EXPERIENCE!

Yeah, I've come to that realization. I first bought the ticket thinking I'll make it if I can, now I'm planning on how I can make funner. Planning on constructing the structure here as big as I can stow away in my car around my tent: http://www.chromatest.net/Lovemonkey/
The Monkey Hut! As soon as the snow melts, gonna set my tent up out in the backyard of the folks house, and blow the dust off all my dads saws and construct a fucking rocking structure to allow some chill space out in front of my pad 
You lot need to get in the official thread in the gathering forum / in my sig so we can all coordinate 
Its no longer if I can get there, but how 'all out' I feel like going my first year - I will hitch hike to the god damn playa if I have to

I've kicked around the idea, but haven't given it much more than a passing thought so far. My main concern right now is estimating out the prices things 'should' cost, and creating a Burning Man budget. I was planning on moving down to AZ sometime over the Spring/Summer, and this is definitely going to put a dent in that budget.
So right now I'm more looking at the logistics of how I want those two major events of 2011 to play out, and getting Burning Man money set aside ASAP, because I will be god damned if I'm not going to be making a Monkey Hut to bring out there with me

So is anyone else waiting for August as though it were Christmas at 5 years old (for those of us fortunate enough to get ramen noodles in our stockings)?
I feel like I'm just going to take a hit of acid, and explode into this ecto-plasmic type multi-colored goo, that's half sperm and half trip all over everyone I know.
.... ya feel me?

well, burning man (at least the parts i went to) were kind of lacking in the music part. thats not to say there arent live bands and dj's in some parts but i didn't notice any real stages. idk anything about shambhala but if its a real music festival, and thats what you're looking for.. do it.
but burning man seems to be more about art to me... in all the ways it comes. and love. lots of love.

I have never been to any festival before in my life, and I am now committed to making the first year burner camp work. I cannot actually to this moment comprehend how much I've committed myself to it, but this is going to be the party of my life time, this could be very well be the 'woodstock' I'm bragging to my future kids about someday.
This is it man, get in now, because the way things are going - who knows if burning man will happen years from now. I will have a glass of whiskey on ice for all my fellow burners, shroomers or not 
Seriously, the rest of you assholes thinking "Oh, I can't do that, I have too much shit going on in my life" - get over it and get your ass there if you can. Lets make 2011 a year to mark down in the books fellas

There are way too many first time burners in here to form a fluent camp. If we formed or own camp, we'd spend our time laughing at the palms of our hands, and dying in the heat - being dragged to shelter by older burners.
You should consider joining my first time burner camp if your going out, I think "StaleShrooms" is the only guy hitting it up so far. We don't need a camp to make a presence.

Oh, and to those who want to 'flock' into there, I'm thinking a hookup in Reno. Cell phones die while approaching Black Rock City, so we'd have to establish a jumping point, and drive together.
Whether we camp at different grounds or whatever doesn't really matter to me, I think just rolling in with some people would me it 10x easier for me.

Aright, aright I'm buying a t-shirt to wear. I think we should definitely have a meetup day for shroomers. It'd be cool to put faces to usernames.
c1dh3d are you for sure camping with the new burners camp? Just wondering.
That monkey hut looks pretty legit. I've been looking for a structure to build (something tells me a tent aint gunna cut it). maybe I'll make one of those. Looks pretty cheap too.

Burning man is tough dude. You're camping in a really harsh environment, you gotta bring all your water food, shelter etc for a week and then you gotta pack everything out. Plus you have to get there. Its a pretty big responsibility. From what I hear it'll be well worth it but it is kind of daunting.
Also, pretty sure some of his nausea came from excitement. It feels like christmas eve already and its still 6 monthes away

I will for sure be camping at the new burners camp, as long as it all comes together and happens. I'm hoping to make it out there with a monkey hut, but the unknown factor of when Ill be moving to AZ would complicate the monkey hut idea, as that will be trunk space I need to haul my belongings.
And yes, 7 days of drug induced hippy mayhem is a bit more intimidating to me than a metal concert. At the metal concert I might throw fists for a few seconds with some drunk prick, at Burning Man I can already feel the pain of waking up with my first hangover in a 130 degree tent

Damn, so one of my really good friends told me he really wants to go to Burning Man sometime. I never would have expected it from him. I rewatched that awesome video and I really want to go. It's sold out right?

Nope, they are still selling Tier 4 tickets at $320, and there are quite a few tickets at tier 3 prices being sold by individuals on the 2011 Burning Man Tickets forum on the eplaya web board

Doesn't make you a bad person, I just figure there is 358 other days of the year to chase tail, I wouldn't waste my time at Burning Man worrying about it 
Also, if you try 'pimping' a nudist you might get dick-zapped by a chick with a taser, just a forewarning.
Sorry to hear about the gf, I read that OD thread, that shit sounded terrible.

Sorry to hear about that man. It sounds like you'll be better off without her.

"Im confident I can find some e-tards who'd like to exchange for some of my gifts :)"
Be very very careful who you exchange with. This is a Fed/BLM/County monitored event. There are undercover narcs out there. PLEASE go to the e-playa and read up on your rights out there. They will bust you for smoking weed in public and underage drinking. Be wise, be discrete and you will have the most amazing time of your life. Time to make the tea & the chocolates. See you on the playa!!!!
PS - We are the girls with the handmade fimo mushroom necklaces on. I have one for all of y'all if you find me!

I think if anyone is going to actually find you, you're going to have to give us more of a landmark to find you by than a necklace.
Like me, I'll be the guy in the freshly pressed lime green plaid 3 piece suit. You should be able to spot me from space. Come find me and earn a special gift! To make it easier I'll be at 2:45 & Graduation.
